Let's Discuss Shaft!

[deadfish3000 2]

Who ever heard of a Sniper that everyone can see?  I hate the laser.

[someguyandacomputer 40]

The laser is like covering yourself in BBQ sauce and walking into a pit of starving lions. By using shaft your just asking to get hit by a railgun.

[SuziJoen 2]

No use flogging a dead horse but ever since the new update this game is no fun anymore.

 

Shaft was my weapon of choice and I used to think I could stand a chance against the dumbass brawl and force with stealth. It was challenging but fun and sometimes frustrating but I considered that ok (my choice of tactic had this inherent) and part of the game anyway. Nowadays I have the feeling the game is just for morons that have big guns, race around and try to shoot as much as possible without even trying to aim.

 

I have tried to find fun in the changes but am pondering to give up on the game for I feel the game has given up on itself already.

[r_Koobi0 31]

You've brought up some very good points.

I use many of those tactics myself.

Though one thing I liked to do before the update was use the scope as a way do assess enemy defence and movement. Because of the zoom, this can be extremely helpful to my teammates. But, I don't consider it living in the scope.

 

To avoid any further disputes, I'll close by explaining that I wasnt exactly frustrated. Though I'll concede that the way it was written might've caused a misunderstanding between us.

It takes a big man to reply with civility. I failed to do that but you didn't :)

GUYS I REALLY LIKE SHAFT THAT GUN IS DA BEST :D 

THAT GUN MAKE ME FIRST LEADER BOARD IN THE BATTLE B) 

[Amagi 1,728]

I'm kinda getting bored of Shaft, after using if for 1 and a half month....

Still a powerful gun anyway.

[Loackie 269]

Doesn't make it any less good. :P

As a Shafter, I find that if the enemy team is starting to get angry at me, I'm doing my job correctly. If someone insults me, I respond with a "you're welcome" and leave it at that.

[Loackie 269]

It's absolutely mainstream. If there was a paint with 50% shaft resist and 10% something else, it would be an incredibly popular paint.

Hello, have you met Railgun?

Before it was impossible to play with Shaft on some maps

Shaft remains strong, but with the laser unfortunately was expelled a few more maps.

Shaft is being gradually removed from Tanki

(google translation)

[Buggati_The_Best 1,233]

shaft with the new laser,helps just the enemy to avoid shaft .-.

Remind me to try that sometime.

[airfixfw 13]

Wait, Jade is a 50% Shaft?  SWEEETTTTTTT!  The laser is really annoying, on Rio, you can tell if the main roads are covered or not.. making it easier for enemy team to sneak attack.  Before update, they would just drive out and BANG they were dead...

 

I love my M1 Shaft, but I just don't use that much anymore.  Before, I camp out at Rio, and get always 3rd on scoreboard.

[roadkill78 39]

I just hate it when people go around with shaft using the laser and killing you.

[roadkill78 39]

People just like guns like shaft and ricochet because they are O to the P OVERPOWERED !
